    Deccan Rivers are fed by:

    A Snow Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Rain Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Coastal Streams Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D None of the above Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The Deccan Rivers are a group of rivers in the Deccan Plateau region of India. These rivers are mainly fed by rainfall, as the Deccan Plateau receives most of its precipitation from the monsoon winds. During the monsoon season, which lasts from June to September, the southwest monsoon winds bring heavy rainfall to the Deccan Plateau, which results in the rivers being filled with water. The rivers then flow towards the Bay of Bengal and provide water for agriculture, hydropower generation, and other purposes.
